One of the festival's highlights is the Tour la Nuit, scheduled for June 2. The nighttime urban ride promises to illuminate Montreal's streets and create a carnival-like atmosphere.
The festival will conclude with the Tour de l’île de Montreal on June 4, a 45-kilometre tour through the vibrant heart of the city. Participants will have the opportunity to explore Montreal's iconic landmarks and neighbourhoods while enjoying the lively energy of the event.
Tickets for all three events are currently available for early bird purchase online, offering enthusiasts the opportunity to secure their participation in this unique celebration of cycling culture.
